DISTRICT PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dear Central District Members,

Happy New Year! As we step into 2025, I am honored and excited to serve as your FL CCIM Central District President. This year marks a fresh opportunity for us to build on the strengths of our District and forge new pathways for success in our professional and personal endeavors. Together, we will focus on a simple yet powerful mantra: Learn, Grow, and Connect.

Learn: Education has always been the cornerstone of the CCIM designation and our district. In 2025, we will continue to provide unparalleled educational opportunities to equip our members in different stages of their careers with the knowledge and tools necessary to thrive in an ever-changing market. From CCIM core designation courses to specialized workshops and market insights, we are committed to fostering a culture of continuous learning for our members.

Grow: Growth is essential—not just for our businesses but for our community. This year, we aim to grow our membership and ensure every member feels supported in their professional journey. Through mentorship programs, scholarships, leadership development initiatives, and a focus on diversity, we will nurture a thriving ecosystem that benefits everyone. By supporting each other, we will grow our commercial real estate businesses and augment our individual earnings!

Connect: Relationships are the heart of our industry. In 2025, we will prioritize creating meaningful connections through special events and networking opportunities. From industry panels and social mixers to our signature events, we are committed to offering platforms where members can collaborate, share ideas, build lasting partnerships and engage in successful dealmaking!

As we embark on this journey together, I invite each of you to actively participate in shaping the future of our district by contributing to building CCIM’s brand as “The Commercial Real Estate Experts”! Whether you are a seasoned professional or new to the industry, your voice and contributions are invaluable. Let’s make this year one of growth, impact, and success—for ourselves and for the communities we serve.

On behalf of the 2025 Board of Directors, thank you for your continued support of the FL CCIM Central District and the CCIM Institute. Here’s to a fantastic year ahead!

Warm regards,


VERONICA MALOLOS, CCIM

2025 President
